About Fax Server
Introduction
The Fax Server allows you to fax a document directly from an application you are using at your
computer’s desktop. You can send the fax to a fax machine or internally to another Subscriber Mail-
box (through Fax Mail).
To use Fax Server, a client workstation must have the Fax Server Printer Driver and Fax Server Cli-
ent software installed. To fax a document, you then select the application’s print menu and choose
Voice Mail Fax Server as the printer. From the Fax Server Setup window, you then select the recip-
ients of your fax.
This document tells you how to activate the FAX Server feature on your Voice Mail and then install
the Fax Server Printer Driver and Fax Server Client software on a client workstation.
